HERE COMES THE SUN
What does this phrase mean to you? According to the Beatles, this song is one of hope, that “after a long, cold, lonely winter” there will be warmer, brighter days ahead, and that “the smile is returning to [the people’s] their faces.” It speaks to the cyclical power of nature, that “the ice is slowly melting”, and that life itself is cyclical. It can speak to the glory of summer, the glory of its wealth and bounty and the pleasure people enjoy in its fruition. It can speak to the return of greenery, of flowers, of birds, of bees and insects, of idyllic times basking in the heat of day, of summers in the sun, of joy, connection, and harmony. So what comes to mind when you think of this phrase? ~Sherry Chanin
